History

This group cardiology practice was formed by Dr. Robert H. Biggs in 1986 as a non-invasive cardiology and internal medicine practice. Dr. Kenneth P. Skorinko joined LVCA in 1987 to provide general invasive and interventional services for the practice. Dr. John Mannisi and Dr. Anthony Urbano joined LVCA as interventional cardiologists in 1990. The year 1996 brought the addition of Dr. Praveer Jain who added his expertise in cardiac electrophysiology to the group. As LVCA continued to grow, Dr. Kenneth Bernhard joined as an associate. In 1999, Dr. Nadeem Ahmad, Dr. George Persin, and Dr. Deborah Sundlof, each of whom specialize in non-invasive cardiology, joined LVCA. The newest associates joining LVCA are: non-invasive cardiologist Dr. Ibrahim Elgabry (2007), interventionalist Dr. Anil Gupta (2008), electrophysiologist Dr. Hari P. Joshi (2008) and interventionalist Dr. Karthik Sheka (2008).
